Morgana PowerSquare™ 224 booklet maker
The Morgana PowerSquare™ 224 booklet maker is a unique and innovative complete booklet making system for digital and offset print applications. It enables you to produce SquareBack™ books up to 224 pages – perfect for high paginations or heavier paper stocks. SquareBack books or booklets can carry print on the spine, just like a perfect bound book. They are easy to handle, stack and pack.
In a single machine the PowerSquare™ 224 booklet maker combines the four processes of stitching, folding, spine forming and trimming to produce SquareBack™ books up to 224 pages thick. It features fully automatic settings for different book size and pagination, including variable stitch-leg length for varying book thickness.
The maximum finished book thickness – 10.4mm / 0.4” (approx 208 pages 80gsm / 21lb bond, 224 pages 70gsm / 18lb bond), is double that of alternative conventional booklet making machines, so it is ideally suited to higher paginations or to thicker stocks. This makes the PowerSquare™ 224 a fast and cost-effective alternative to perfect binding or tape binding. Digital print applications frequently use heavier stocks and need the flexibility to produce a wider range of finished books from a single process, with little or no operator intervention – the PowerSquare™ is a perfect match.
